MAGS Robotics make it to the National championships

Baldwins is proud to sponsor the Mount Albert Grammar School (MAGS) Robotics team who went to the National Championships for the 2013-2014 season’s game in early March.
They entered two robots, one of which made it into the third alliance for the quarter finals after a successful day of qualification matches.

Along with doing well in the competition, this event was a success for the team as they achieved the aim of entering two fully functioning robots into the nationals.

Baldwins’ sponsorship has made it possible for MAGS Robotics to run two robots and this allowed them to expand and include more actively participating members in the team.

This year over twenty enthusiastic new students have joined the MAGS Robotics team and they hope to expand the team further in the coming year to enable more success in the new season.

The MAGS Robotics team plan to enter at least two teams in the new season with the hopes to purchase a competition field.

This will allow them to test their robots in an environment more similar to the competition environment, an area which they have identified as the next step in expanding the team.
